This is the beautiful, true story of a tragic love affair. When Arthur Hart-Synnot, a disciplined, conservative British army officer met Masa Suzuki, a bright, beautiful Japanese girl, whilst on a military posting to Japan, the pair fell deeply and hopelessly in love. Masa was more than a 'temporary wife' like most of the other officer's Japanese girlfriends. Arthur described her as 'the supreme woman in the world'. When he was recalled to England, then sent to Burma, and then to India, their relationship struggled on, in the face of opposition from her family, from the massive gap between their cultures, from the military and from the huge distances between them.

In this sweet story, a young girl in modern-day Japan takes a special trip to visit the blossoming cherry trees with her grandmother. What is more fun than the zoo, more beautiful than a shrine, and prettier than the neon lights of Tokyo? Mayumie and her grandmother are taking a train ride into the heart of the biggest city in Japan to see something special, but Grandmother won't say what it is. Mayumie tries to guess what this special place might be, but the excitement of riding the train and seeing the sights of the city is almost thrilling enough. Finally, they turn down a quiet street and find what Grandmother has been looking for--a grove of Japanese cherry trees, all in blossom. This touching story of a little girl's outing with her grandmother takes place in modern-day Japan, where cherry trees bloom for one week every spring. With text simple enough for beginning readers, author Jennifer Reed captures the excitement and wonder of a young girl's day in the big city, while illustrator Dick Cole's watercolors complement both the serenity and animation of Tokyo in the springtime.

Falling Blossoms is an evocative and wide-ranging selection of poems and tales that explores various aspects of different circumstances and cultures. A young woman with an infant and an unfaithful husband desperately searches for a family life. A man realises why he’s been evicted twice in his life. A young woman foresees her own loneliness and mortality in older age. Author Marcus moved to England himself at the age of eighteen and has included his experiences of arriving in Plymouth and the ensuing culture shock that occurred once he arrived. He also looks at several aspects of human emotion; his poem ‘Innocence’ is about losing our childhood dreams; ‘Lacrima per te’, which translates as ‘tears for you’, is the story of a mutual love; ‘Health & safety d’amore’ pokes fun at some men’s attempt at demonstrating their affection; ‘Mourning’ features the absence of words when somebody has just lost a dear one; ‘Old age’ is an old man’s reminiscing of youthful sex; ‘Awakening’ narrates one man’s self-realisation when faced with his own humanity. Falling Blossoms is a poignant and thought-provoking collection that will resonate with every reader in some way. It will appeal to fans of poetry and short stories. Moon, stars, and the neon lights, lovers, poets, and mandolin players.

Why did almost one thousand highly educated "student soldiers" volunteer to serve in Japan's tokkotai (kamikaze) operations near the end of World War II, even though Japan was losing the war? In this fascinating study of the role of symbolism and aesthetics in totalitarian ideology, Emiko Ohnuki-Tierney shows how the state manipulated the time-honored Japanese symbol of the cherry blossom to convince people that it was their honor to "die like beautiful falling cherry petals" for the emperor. Drawing on diaries never before published in English, Ohnuki-Tierney describes these young men's agonies and even defiance against the imperial ideology. Passionately devoted to cosmopolitan intellectual traditions, the pilots saw the cherry blossom not in militaristic terms, but as a symbol of the painful beauty and unresolved ambiguities of their tragically brief lives. Using Japan as an example, the author breaks new ground in the understanding of symbolic communication, nationalism, and totalitarian ideologies and their execution.
